NETGEAR M4350-24F4V 24-Port 10G SFP+ Managed AV Network Switch - Manual (Page 93)

Time and NTP settings
The switch supports the Network Time Protocol (NTP), which is a system for synchronizing
the clocks of networked computer systems, primarily when data transfer is handled
through the Internet.
Configure the time settings with NTP and
configure the global NTP settings
To configure the time by using NTP and configure the global NTP settings:
1. Launch a web browser.
2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Log in to the main UI with a web
browser on page 27 and the subsections.
The login page displays.
3. Click the Main UI Login button.
The main UI login page displays in a new tab.
4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login
button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System > Management > Time > Time Configuration.
The Time Configuration page displays.
The Date and Time fields display the current date and time that are detected by the
switch.
6. Select the NTP Authentication Mode Enable or Disable radio button to enable or
disable NTP packet authentication on the switch.
When enabled, an NTP packet from an NTP server is authenticated. The authentication
is based on SHA256. If the packet cannot be authenticated, it is dropped, and the
switch cannot synchronize its time with the NTP server that sent the packet.
By default, this mode is enabled.
7. Select the NTP Broadcast Client Mode Enable or Disable radio button to enable or
disable the switch from broadcasting NTP requests.
